Dansville, NY: April 22, 1933 – November 5, 2021. Jera Lee Biddle, 88, of Dansville, New York, passed away peacefully on November 5, 2021 at Noyes Memorial Hospital.
Jera Lee was born to Stephen and Elsie McConnell, on April 22, 1933 in Hornell, New York. She graduated from high school in 1951 from Meadville High School in Pennsylvania.
Jera married John A. Biddle on October 24, 1953 and together they had three sons, Craig, Jeffery and Kip. Craig was born with a birth defect that required constant care. For 25 years she dedicated herself to his well-being and Jera met this obligation with love, honor and devotion. Also, during that time, she never neglected her other two sons and somehow found the time to work as a secretary in several Dansville area businesses such as FA Owen Publishing, Shay Trucking and attorney John Scura.
An avid fan of the New York Yankees, Jera Lee is survived by her sons, Jeffery of Florida and Kip of Louisiana. She is also survived by her three grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her former husband John and son Craig. Also, her aforementioned parents, 2 brothers Richard and Stephen McConnell, and sister Betty DeMocker.
